SHAMPOO
The naturally derived,
sulfate- and paraben-free
Aveeno Almond Oil
Blend Shampoo ($7; drugstores)
left hair “looking and
feeling smoother after just
one week of use.”
CONDITIONER
Herbal Essences Sulfate
Free Honey & Vitamin B
Conditioner ($6; drugstores)
was “moisturizing” yet
“rinsed clean.” One tester said,
“I’m using up this bottle
and then purchasing again.”
DRY SHAMPOO
Batiste Hydrating Dry Shampoo
($9; drugstores) “makes hair
look clean,” “amps up
volume,” and “refreshes roots
without drying out the
scalp.” Plus, it doesn’t leave hair
sticky, powdery, or white.
“It’s worthy of a clapping-hands
emoji,” said one mom.
CURL REFRESHER
Members of the curl squad
know hydration is key
to stellar second-day strands.
TRESemmé Between Washes
Curl Revive Styling Foam
($5; drugstores) “rejuvenated”
and “added volume”
so hair “looked better on Day 3
than it did on Day 1.”
MASK
“The experience of
using this felt like being at
a spa,” said one mom about
OGX Extra Strength
Hydrate & Repair + Argan Oil
of Morocco Hair Mask
($9; drugstores). It was
“so luxurious” and left strands
“soft and hydrated.”
“I love that
this hair gel has
ingredients
I recognize!”
HEAT PROTECTANT
The secret sauce in
Joico Defy Damage Protective
Shield ($21; ulta.com) is
a blend of moringa-seed oil,
keratin, and lipids that
“smoothed,” “moisturized,”
and “protected against
damage while blow-drying.”
HAIR
FRIZZ FIGHTER
Sailor by Captain
Blankenship Jellyfish Hair Gel
($15; target.com) was
a surprising multitasker that
“worked wonders on frizz”
without forming a “sticky,
crunchy film.” Curls were “soft
and nicely defined” too.
